Beschreibung

92 pp., Arabic and French text, half title, contemporary printed wrappers, lightly soiled and rubbed round edges, occasional light foxing, otherwise copy in good condition. This work contains the text of the Fables of Loqman (Lokman) in Arabic followed by an Arabic-French dictionary of the words used in these fables. Luqman is thought to have been a pre-Islamic personality, whose name is given to the thirty-first chapter of the Quran. According to Islamic tradition, Luqman was a sage who lived in the eleventh century BC. and came from Abyssinia, Egypt or Palestine. He lived with a powerful king who respected him enormously, who some believe was King David. The Qur?an does not speak of Luqman as a prophet, but merely describes his character traits. Here is a compilation of fables which legend attributes to him. The Fables of Lokman was published by Erpenius and Golius in the 17th century. Marcel made a translation in 1799 and 1803.
